      Dscoop

      • Dscoop 5 — 2009 Conference Materials

        Dscoop5’s theme was No Looking Back. This theme was translated into signage theme - being on the road, always moving and looking forward. An interstate logo was developed to unify all of the pieces.

      • Dscoop5 — Onsite Conference Guide

        The signage theme gave us so much visual flexibility in the various applications. We were able create fun treatments from emails, direct mail, Web site, and on-site graphics.

      • Dscoop5 — Save the Date Mailer

        To tie this save the date mailer into the “No Looking Back” directional theme, we created a personalized road map. Each mailer had each recipient’s name on the cover. On the interior map, the points of interest on the map were customized for each member’s focus — label & packaging, business & sales, or technical.

      • Dscoop5 — Onsite Signage

        This was fun. We were able to canvas the Gaylord Texan in Dallas, Texas. From 60 foot tall atrium banners to floor graphics we converted the 400,000 square foot plus Texan into a Dscoop5 interstate.

      • Dscoop5 — Onsite Signage

        Um, you guessed it, the Welcome! sign.

        General session stage signage. That’s Larry Vaughn from Ideal Printers up on stage - one of the coolest guys you’ll ever meet!

      • Quarterly

        Every three months we help deliver new industry information in DscoopQuarterly. It’s filled with the latest business building news and information for Dscoop members. Our job is easy - make it look good!

      • Quarterly

        What’s better than being able to create energy-filled layouts is that we end up learning just as much — from the articles and being able to try out different substrates and finishing techniques.

      Middlesex Hospital

      • Lift Piece

        The Middlesex Hospital Cancer Center added suvivorship services to its arsenal of services. To help educate the public and raise funds for the new services we created a quad fold mailer that covered the complications that arise through cancer survivorship and the services that help alleviate them.

      • Lift Piece

        Each year Middlesex Hospital has a survivors’ day celebration. At the event survivors receive buttons to indicate the number of years they’ve been a survivor. We used the buttons as a graphic to inform readers about the many survivors the Middlesex Hospital have helped but also that the treatment does not end on the day that a survivor is declared “cancer-free.”

      • Lift Piece

        We highlighted the stages of survivorship the typical patient goes through and the services were developed at the Center for Survivorship and Integrative Medicine to help.

      • Cancer Center Brochure

        Being involved with this project was amazing and humbling. We were able to interview, photograph and get to know some of the cancer survivors from the Middlesex Hospital Cancer Center. We did our best to honor their courageous story. The individuals in these vignettes are abolute superheroes. Their appetite for life and effervescence is inspiring. The personality of their portraits is clearly the best way to tell the story of survivorship.

      • Cancer Center Brochure

        What else is there to say? The stories of the survivors and their relatives gave us an amazing appreciation for their fights, but also for the dedication and compassion of the Cancer Center staff.

      • Culture of Nursing Excellence Brochure

        This is a cute recruiting brochure (4 x 5 inches) that brings the personality of the nursing staff to the forefront. The story we like best about this is that initially it was suggested to be an 8.5 x 11 “sell sheet” and it needed to be ready in 3 days. We’re not big fans of standard sell sheets. So put together this piece that, for printing purposes, fits on one sheet of 11 x 17 paper and is folded down and cut. It was ready in time and we’re now on our second printing!

      University of Hartford

      • 2009 Annual Report

        Come on, even in tough economic times you can’t resist having a little school spirit! We took the idea of painting the town red and brought it to the annual report - ConnectRed! Connected...Red...Get it? It’s about connecting everyone who has ties with the University.

      • Annual Report

        So, take that red paint and have every personal story in the book be shot in a red room. The photography was great fun to do. Shooting them on red made all the difference as everyone was just glowing.

      • Annual Report

        You can blame it all on the crew in this photo. They’re the culprits who painted the whole book!

      Carling Technologies

      • Ad Campaign

        Okay, to look at the products that Carling Techologies makes you might say, “boring.” But what they do and the rock solid performance that they provide is not. We let the products that they make take center stage and backed them up with graphics and headlines that help explain what the products do, where they’re used and how they can help. Visually they popped out in the industrial trade magazines.

      • Ad Campaign

        Excellent, you wanted to see more! Have to say it, the “Heat? No Sweat!” is a personal favorite.

      • KRReporter

        The KRReporter is Kostin, Ruffkess & Company’s biannual newsletter to prospects and clients. It is focused on delivering content tailored for business owners and leaders. Our goal is to inject some fun into what steretypically are thought of as dry, academic or down right boring.

      • KRReporter

        The “death” tax died. Pretty ironic, eh? We thought so too, so we made that the cover story and made up our very own headstone.

      Moritz Aerospace

      • Capabilities Brochure

        If you’re flying and need it powered or measured, Moritz Aerospace can help. To tell that story, a metallic silver line of measurements lead the reader from the cover through the entire brochure.

      • Capabilities Brochure

        Technical-style illustrations help show the product development process as well as teh benefits of each of the Moritz product lines — from flexibilty, weight savings, faster installation, and less cabling.

      • Capabilities Brochure

        Detail of the metalic silver “measurement” line that lead through the entire piece. It helped to visually connect product photography, application shots, product information and specifications.

      The Capital Classics Shakespeare Festival

      • A Midsummer Night’s Dream Poster

        We had a blast devleoping concepts for this poster. We made it a priority to work with our hands on this project. The chosen poster helps represent the theme in the play about nature’s pixies messing with their human playthings’ love interests. The characters and heart were hand made and colored and then photographed. The end result made for an elegant and quite dimensional poster.

      Capital Workforce Partners

      • Jobs Funnel Folder and Inserts

        When our friends at Capital Workforce Partners asked us to help create a brochure for the Jobs Funnel program. They weren’t sure when each of the sections would be ready but needed to prepare a piece for a celebratory event. So we fashioined a small folder to house inserts for the sections. That gave the Jobs Funnel the piece that they needed in the short term and the ability to add as content was finalized.

      • Jobs Funnel Folder and Inserts

        The Jobs Funnel is a program that helps train individuals for careers in the construction trades. The folder and inserts used construction-related textures, tools and action photos. For the inserts we had the pleasure to get out into the field and take photos of program graduates on location.

    What’s the common theme among all of our clients?
    They are all great people.

    clients logos

    Cipher Creative designed the
    promotional poster for our
    20th anniversary production of
    A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
    As we posted them throughout the
    community, we were repeatedly
    asked, “Can I have one?”
    Yes, this is great art, but just as
    importantly, it’s effective art.
    We drew our biggest audience
    in 20 years.

    collective experiences and knowledge, as well as from general research.
